The Amazing Spider-Man 2 homing in on its Harry Osborn?

Who's in line to play Harry Osborn in The Amazing Spider-Man 2? We've got a few names right here...

As writing and pre-production work gets going on The Amazing Spider-Man 2, it’s already clear that Marc Webb’s second webslinger feature is going to introduce some familiar characters. We already know that a new take on Mary Jane is going to turn up in The Amazing Spider-Man 2, in the guise of Shailene Woodley. But now, it looks as if Harry Osborn is going to be introduced too.

Osborn was, of course, played by James Franco in Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man trilogy. But in The Amazing Spider-Man 2, it looks like he might be played by Chronicle’s Dane Dehaan. Other candidates for the role at the moment include Melancholia’s Brady Corbet, and Alden Ehrenreich.

It sounds, from The Hollywood Reporter piece, that it may be a little while yet before the identity of the new Harry Osborn is revealed. When the announcement is made, we’ll let you know. We have, of course, sent in our audition tape…
